Howdy everybody... let me introduce myself.
I've been a nicotine addict since I was about 15, where I experimented with smoking for about a year (no idea why I decided to fool around with this stuff, oh well). At about 16 I started dipping, started with Grizzly Wintergreen and tried out a bunch of others, but eventually stuck with the grizz. I tried to quit several times, a couple of 3 month spans and what not. Last year I made it for a good 10 months (met some girl, but that's a whole other messy story).
Got dumped after I got back home for summer, and 2 weeks later I was on a can of dip a day. When I went back to school I ordered a tryout box of snus, in hopes to transition over. That didn't last very long, and I was back on the dip.
Anyways, for whatever reason I decided to try snus again (dip was getting really expensive and I'm on a fairly tight budget this year - yet ANOTHER messy story ;]) and ordered 10 cans of Thunder Berry, 1 can of Thunder Cola, and 1 can of Nic and Johnny (forget what exact kind). I've been snusing for the last 2 days and really enjoying it! I've tossed in a dip here and there, but I really am starting to prefer snus. The only issues I've had so far has been a sore throat and overall cold feeling that I got the last time I tried snus... along with a bit of a sensitive stomach, I always feel hungry but have no appetite. Hopefully this is just a transition from the chemicals in dip to the more natural snus.
As an added bonus, I was looking for a syllabus for one of my classes today and by chance happened to look in one of my cabinets where I keep my books... and lo and behold, there were 5 or 6 cans of snus from my try out box that I thought I had thrown away in a failed attempt to kick all tobacco out of my life a few weeks ago. As it stands now, I'm content with snusing and was stoked to see that I even had some extra cans from before!
I've been perusing this forum for the last several days as well, and am almost just as excited to be part of this forum as I am about snus! So hopefully I didn't go against any rules by posting this, haha.
One last question, has anyone using the iphone/ipod ever accidentally searched for "Swedish anus" instead of "Swedish snus"? Darn auto-correct, haha.
